Violacein (548-54-9) displays immunostimulatory effects via the TLR8 receptor.1 Induces death of Ras-mutated melanoma cells via down-regulation of HDAC6, AXL and AKT inhibiting autophagy.2 Induces apoptosis in breast cancer cells by upregulating Bax, p53 and down regulating MDM2.3 Displays protective effects in an ALS model.4
